Key Points:
- Hamster's CTO Takamitsu Shimomura expressed interest in supporting pre-Famicom Nintendo hardware, such as the Color TV-Game series, for the Console Archives series, stating it is not impossible and aligns with their goal to archive every home game.
- The Color TV-Game series, released in 1977 before the Famicom, includes titles like Color TV-Game 6 and Color TV-Game Racing 112, offering simple games such as Pong and Breakout clones, which would be valuable for preservation and fans of Nintendo's early gaming history.
- Hamster and Nintendo have a history of collaboration, having previously released games like Vs. Super Mario Bros., Super Punch-Out, and the arcade game Sky Skipper on the Arcade Archives line, all available on the Nintendo eShop.
- The Console Archives series recently added Ninja Gaiden 3: The Ancient Ship of Doom, marking a notable new release for the platform.
